}This paper describes the development of a reference measurement procedure to quantify human C-reactive protein (CRP) in serum using affinity techniques prior to tryptic digestion and liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry (LC-MS/MS) for the certification of reference materials in clinically relevant ranges. The absence of a suitable internal standard for the CRP measurement, necessary to eliminate potential measurement bias in both the affinity purification and trypsin digestion steps…

A CRP primary certified reference material (CRM) of well-characterised purity was determined that could be used to calibrate an IDMS-based reference method, that could then be use to assign target values to secondary CRMs, giving a good foundation for establishing a complete traceability chain for CRP.

It is demonstrated that nanoparticles more efficiently bind antibody when compared to microparticles, which was expected due to the larger surface area per unit mass of the nanoparticles compared to the same mass ofmicroparticles.
